You can wait for the Pro version of the Abyss Web Server or you can use ::Virtual Host Creator:: , A
small project that lets you host multiple websites with more than one programming language !

http://www.Multiple-Sites.tk

Or

http://vhosting.cjb.net

Wait, do you already have the subdomains created and pointing to your website, or is that want you want to make?

So you haven't made the subdomain, right?

How do you manage your DNS?

Yes, it is. It all depends on how you have your DNS set up.

I have a couple:
design.cfxnetworks.com
p2p.cfxnetworks.com
mail.cfxnetworks.com
I use ZoneEdit for mine.

it's quite simple...

Just need to setup your subdomains:

home.yoursite.com
email.yoursite.com
whatever.yoursite.com

point them all to your IP.

Create a redirect script page in your favorite server side language so it retrieves the HTTP_HOST Server Variable and then redirects the user to the specified page based on what's found in the HTTP_HOST.

Thats the jist of it....I'm not going into how to write it. I'm pretty sure the process has been documented in the forums.
